MOTOR CONTROL TUNING: STEERING SENSITIVITY
ALLOWABLE
PARAMETER RANGE DESCRIPTION
LS Sensitivity 20 – 100 % Defines the steering sensitivity at very low speeds (i.e., at near zero
0x4132 0x00 6553 – 32767 traction rpm), as a percentage of the programmed Position Kp.
Sensitivity is typically reduced at low speeds to prevent excessive
hunting for the commanded position.
HS Sensitivity 20 – 100 % Defines the steering sensitivity at high speeds, as a percentage
0x4133 0x00 6553 – 32767 of the programmed Position Kp.
Sensitivity is typically reduced at high speeds to make the vehicle
easier to drive.
Low Speed 0 – 32767 rpm
•
n
Defines the speed at which 100% sensitivity will be applied, as the
0x4134 0x00 0 – 32767 vehicle accelerates.
Mid Speed 0 – 32767 rpm
•
n
Defines the speed at which 100% sensitivity will start to decrease
0x4135 0x00 0 – 32767 to the programmed HS Sensitivity value as the vehicle accelerates.
High Speed 0 – 32767 rpm
•
n
Sets the speed at and above which the programmed HS Sensitivity
0x4136 0x00 0 – 32767 value will be applied.

The map adjusts the proportional gain (Position Kp) as
a function of traction speed.
The steering sensitivity map is shaped by the settings
of the five parameters in the Steering Sensitivity menu,
with the two sensitivity parameters along the Y axis
and the three speed parameters along the X axis.
